Men Deserve Better: The Lies, the Decline, and the Truth About Testosterone

Testosterone Is Declining—and It’s Being Overlooked

Over the last two decades, testosterone levels in men have dropped significantly. And not just in older men - this decline is happening in young, otherwise healthy individuals too. A man in his early 20s today may have the testosterone levels of someone in their late 60s just two decades ago.

And yet, the conversation around it remains quiet.

You might hear things like, “It’s just stress,” or “Try cutting back on red meat,” when the truth is far more serious: men are facing a biological shift, and mainstream medicine isn’t doing nearly enough about it.

Debunking the Myth: “Testosterone Therapy Is Dangerous”

One flawed study caused widespread fear about testosterone replacement therapy (TRT), claiming it raised the risk of heart attacks. What didn’t make headlines? That the study was later discredited - and that newer, higher-quality research shows the opposite.

In fact, properly managed TRT has been shown to:

• Reduce the risk of heart attacks and strokes in men with low testosterone

• Improve insulin sensitivity and metabolic health

• Lower all-cause mortality

But this important data rarely reaches the public.

Quietly Reversed: The FDA’s Update in 2023

In 2023, the FDA removed the black box warning on testosterone therapy - but they didn’t publicize it. No big announcements, no media coverage. Just a quiet update that left many wondering why the warning existed in the first place.

Unfortunately, the damage had already been done.

How many men were prescribed antidepressants instead of being tested for low testosterone?

How many lives were affected by untreated hormonal imbalances?

TRT Isn’t Hype - It’s Evidence-Based Medicine

When done responsibly - under the supervision of a qualified medical provider - TRT can offer life-changing benefits:

• Increased energy, reduced fat, and improved muscle mass

• Enhanced mental clarity, mood, and libido

• Better sleep and cardiovascular health

• Support for cognitive function and emotional well-being

This isn’t about “hacking” your body. It’s about restoring what’s been lost and optimizing your health with clinical precision.

So Why Are So Many Men Still Undiagnosed?

Because no one profits when you feel your best.

Low testosterone is often overlooked or misdiagnosed, while the symptoms - fatigue, depression, weight gain - are treated with medications that don’t address the root cause.
